OAKLYN, N.J. (WPVI) — A Camden County auto shop owner says masked thieves stole three of their most expensive vehicles during an early morning break-in Saturday.
The incident happened just after 6:20 a.m. at Saifo Auto Sales in Oaklyn.
Surveillance video shows several masked suspects arriving in what appears to be a newer gray BMW, reversing into the lot, and using a bolt cutter to break into the building.
Owner Tarek Saifo said the suspects appeared to act with precision.
“It didn’t seem like a coincidental theft; it seemed like someone who knew exactly where they were going. They knew what time to go,” said Saifo.
Saifo said three vehicles were taken: a 2020 BMW 4030, a white 2014 BMW 615, and a 2013 Infiniti M37. He said the thieves also took tools and a TV, but left behind the receiver that contained the shop’s surveillance footage.
Saifo says it will cost him about $34,000, and added that the suspects appeared to know where the vehicles’ keys were kept.
The business has only been operating for three months in Oaklyn. Previously, they were in Delran for four years. Saifo said its location along a busy highway may have made it an easy target.
“We got a security system installed, put bars on the windows and we’re just trying to make sure this never happens again,” he said.
Saifo said the financial impact is significant, noting the business does not have theft insurance.
“It’s just hard as a small business trying to recover from this. It’s going to take us years if we ever will,” he said.
Camden County police are investigating.
